the problem with updates

I've been blessed and cursed at the same time.from last night until this moment,i have been frantically trying to solve the problem of my computer.it was beginning to feel as if i was not meant to have a computer because they keep giving me problems.luckily,i did not panic (well i did panic at first but only for a tiny moment)

the problem was that i made my computer shut down automatically after it finished downloading a certain file and then when i turned it on, it began to install these updates which i thought was usual.then all of the sudden when it said "Configuring Updates 3 of 3.0% completed,it automatically restarts and continued like that at somewhat a loop. so i didn't know what to do so i left it and went for a drink with my friends.after i came back it was still doing it so i tried everything and since i lost my recovery partition,i didn't know what to do and since i didn't have any other computer with me,i had to surf the internet through my ipod touch and started searching for a solution to my problem. after hours of trying i finally gave up and this morning, i went to the store and picked up and bought a vista DVD.that wasn't the end of it really.throughout the day, i still had to reinstall all the drivers that had not been installed automatically.

the problems with updates is that all the "security updates" that windows made us install isnt much of a concern to us at all.some of us let it automatically update itself (that includes me before this happened) and when this happens.why do we need so much security for? does everybody has government secrets on their laptop? what/so we can surf the net safely without any threats? so whats the point of me installing the internet security software then?..well im pretty sure that microsoft has its own reasons to do this but do they need people to hate them for it? i mean even if it is for our own good? having to reinstall the OS is for our own good also?

if even microsoft updates does make your computer act like what i just experienced,i think they shouldn't have made people buy the DVD..so for now, im still mad at microsoft that i bought a pirated one and used the loader..thats for ruining my whole day and made me switch to apple for 12 hours..i wasnt familiar using apple computers so for that I HATE MICROSOFT!

apart from that,i just wanted to say that be aware of everything that you change and install in your computer,i know you've probably heard it countless of times regarding installing 3rd party software but Im talking about those damned updates that made my computer lost all of its factory-included software.cheers

its been a while

i've come to realize that my old habits about blogging has come back.i used to put up numerous blogs since 2004 but non of the blogs seem to flourish or being maintained successfully.but thats all in the past..im going to try and post as much as i can.so whats happening? i can tell you not much but i would be lying..it seems that i still wouldnt have my driving license this year,i dont know why.

I keep asking my parents to send me to driving schools but all i get are delays,and then when people ask them why their son hasnt taken his driving lesson,their answer is that im afraid i would be made a driver to my little brother to school..say what?!if i was asked to drive my little brother to school everyday i'd be more than happy to..i have this image that having the ability to drive legally is like freedom for you to be anywhere you desire..well not anywhere but what i mean is that if you want to go to have a drink,you might do so without any restrictions or having to ask anyone to help you.

you might say that my reason are not really what having a driving license is about but to me it is.well that's that,let me just sidetrack for a moment to evaluate myself.I've discovered so much about me for the past two/three years..what i realized is that im the type of guy that wants everything to be just the way i like it.but im not going to insist on it.an easy example is regarding blogging,blogging is simple and complicated at the same time.the simple things about blogging is that you can express whatever you like,its not exactly freedom without consequences.it has responsibility that comes with it but basically you can blab about your sex life, your frustrations,knowledge,complaints and such.

but what makes me feel not attracted to blogging is the task of having to cook up something to write,it just makes me lazy to update if i have to write long sentences without having any marks given. so that's me, I'll do anything only if i know what its good for. i mean I'll care for a baby even it does bite my ear off because i know the ways to care and understand why i need to care for a baby( well not in a parenting way) but if its complex and needs alot of patience, i probably wouldn't bother. but i learned that being patient has its perks at times,only if the reward at the end of it is something big or rewarding.

Busted

I'm posting this very late post purely becasue i was unable to sleep.i took 2 Panadols and 2 other for my stomach ache. as you can see from my blog layout you may have noticed that its not really neat/properly organized.well i'm much that way as well.if you see my room,doesnt matter at my home or here, you can see similarity in both of these rooms. let me tell you something about myself.

first of all, i dont always make up my bed.my bed can stay messy as long as i can stand it or until im that motivated/bored.second is that i tend to leave clothes hanging on chairs,couches and sometimes on the table. it doesnt mean that im messy all the time! sometimes i do clean up but believe me,it only stays neat for a day and themn its back to "normal". there are somethings that people dont know about messy people.of course we can say that they are lazy but you coould also syathat they are not too choosy.its like they want hot girls but semi-hot girls are okay.so when it comes to me, the only way that you can interpret is that,i like hot girls,but semi-hot girls,i can take,the only thing is that i dont know if i would be able to stay faithful to a semi-hot girls when the time comes that i want a hot girl..get what i mean?

i know this maybe complicated but i think that this is a theory to be acknowledged. you see,or a slob that doesnt want to clean at all, they like the idea of a neat room but they are just too lazy too clean up that they accept the messiness. this may indicate they might take a transvestite or worse!

(before anyone judges me or kills me,..please dont take it seriously and just take it as a really horrible joke.)

my back is broken?

hello people,sorry for the exaggerated topic but after days of wondering what to write i suddenly realized something that has( i maybe wrong) never been said before.

we all have been experiencing sore backs for not sitting straight or sleeping the right position and sometimes we blame the chair or the bed or whatever it is.I'm not suggesting we blame ourselves for the pain but as of right now,I'm sleeping at my friends house for a while and i always make the couch or the floor of his living room as my bed.thankfully i haven't suffered any pain on my back but i just realized the "goodness" sleeping on the floor/couch is,i meant not physically but rather mentally.
You see, as we feel uncomfortable sleeping on the floor/couch, it has made me realized the satisfaction one can get by sleeping on a bed. think of it as a homeless person given a bed for the first time.I'm sure in the past he has slept in a comfortable bed but after so long sleeping beside the road,he can finally get a bed after so long.The satisfaction of it just makes you more grateful of having a bed.
Some of you might say that I'm just rambling my @$$ off on this but just have a thought on what would have been if you weren't born in the same circumstances?what if you were born in a place were we sleep on beds with nails as our mattresses? see what i mean? you can never enjoy much of your time sleeping in bed until you have slept on a couch/floor. my advice?try sleeping on the cold floor once in a while then just think about it(not recommended for people with bad backs)

something to ponder on

today im not gonna post anything that is funny,sarcastic,or anything of that kind.i was just going through the internet looking for something to write on.as i ws just going through youtube, i watched a video of a man talking about spreading gossips in accordance to islam.this man was Allahyarham Sheikh Mutawali Sha'rawy who was a really brilliant man in tafseer..so he was talking about repentance for the first 4 minutes of the clip and what struck me was when he talked about exposing other people's secret.
i wont be discussing what he said but im just going to quote one or two sentences from his discussion.what he said was that the reason why people keep secrets is that becasue they still feels shyness.there is still goodness in them that they realize they had done something wrong.so if you do expose them,it would be like you wouldnt want anyone to change..so talking about exposing secrets,i came to realize what reporters were doing all along.some of the reporters especially celebrity reporters are trying to expose what people dont want others to know.sure they say that by exposing these secrets wil let people know the real story..now enlighten me,is it better to expose a secret that wouldnt do much rather that sell a paper or is it better to let others change.
sha'rawy did say that if you expose others,people will want to expose you. this means that if you want to expose others,you would set a bad example to others and also you MIGHT carry other people's sin if the public does spread what you reported. so hear me out on this one..blogs also can be a dangerous place if you dont really think what you say..so after this,i hope om ot going to tell you about any secrets about anyone and hopefully you can correct me if i do.on that statement,i bid you farewell

Doomed

Here's the catch,i have two assignments to hand out by Thursday and one is basically finished except for a few final touches but another is one assignment that i have to redo because it was as my lecturer tried to spin around as rubbish.

this was solely because we had no time to research the topic really well and also basically my group just submitted my part of the assignment which was only about six pages of 1st draft work.
this post is just meant to basically let out my anger because if u knew me, you would know that i would never let out my anger in action.so i guess you'll have to bear with my yapping..
i have a sinister plan to take all the credit for myself and the rest of my group suffer but to be honest I'm not that mean and i wont really go through with it.so my plan would be to produce a decent work and hopefully make it past the bar for this subject.
this is what annoys me the most,people taking credit for other people's work.i mean im not talking about plagiarism(because i usually do that quite often in the past)im talking about group assignments where one works while the other slacks.i mean whats the point of being in a university when you cant even come up with an idea of how to do a simple analysis?whats so difficult of saying what is different from one writer to another? some might say that im boasting my capabilities but mind you that i worked hard on how to be argumentative in writing and how to analyze things.the thing is that some people boast being in universities but when you ask them what do they think of the work dome by Al-biruni on India,the all just blank out and just fork out complete nonsense.
i hope that i can finish the assignmnet by Thursday and pray to Allah that all will be well.

we need a definition

As some people have realized that i always do my assignments at the last minute, i like the pressure of wanting to complete everything at the last minute because you cant be complacent at that crucial timeline but today i got a whole new meaning to "last minute". the story goes that an assignment for one of my subjects is due this monday and just this afternoon, one of my group members decided this was the only good time to do start with te assignment out of the four months we had during the semester..just brilliant!lucky for me, i already made an outline for the assignment and also penned a few words.so i think its time to really define what "the last minute" really means.

people always use the phrase" the last minute" (for those of you who think its not a phrase i suggest you call up your engish teacher and ask him/her)refers to the critical moment of a deadline when one trys to overcome the pressure of a looming deadline.so it may refer to the a few weeks before the deadline, a few days before the deadlin.the "last minue" phrase ends when it comes a few or very very near the deadline like for say a few hours before or shorter.when it comes to that point,it isnt called the last minute anymore,its called the "crunch time"..i know i sound like an english teacher but hey,maybe im wrong or maybe you cant just understand because of all the "philosophical" explanation..so i'll just stop her to stop you guys from being confused..if you have any questions please do keep it to yourself..Ciao

the problem of being invincible

it just came to me that bieng invincible(not invincible as in invincible girl) is not that great.i know you must be saying "since when is being invincible great?!" but let me just say that not everyone is very good at socializing and that being the reason,we are content to being invincible to other people.i dont know if someone has come up with this theory of some sort, but for me personally ther are several levels of invincible
1)Totally invincible
this includes people that are really distant from the whole world.they are shun from the population.cant seem to find anyone to relate to and they are sometimes happy that way.they like being isolated in their own island and isnt thinking of changing
2)"controlled" invincible
includes people who seem to be noticed by a small number of people for example people who are in a chess club, they only know people who are in the chess club and no one else
3) partially invincible
this is where i was about 10 years ago..its the kind of person who does make friends outside their natural environment but kept invincible by certain group of people mainly the "elite" such as jocks, beauty queens..those type of people

im not here to preach about social etiquette but lets be realistic here.why do we think that people are invincible? is it because we think that they dont deserve to be noticed by us? we cant dent that we cant see them..its not like we walk around closing one eye! i have to admit that i resent these type of people..we always see in movies there are jock and beauty queens..but guess what,its high school you stoopid fool! its a time when kids think they are turning into adults but end up being brats with knowledge.. i always like the image of those jocks when i was in middle school at this very moment pushing papers at a basement office with a lousy pay.makes me sleep peacefully..JK

A Shower a day makes the flies go away

hey guys!it seems really annoying to me that some people try to deny that funky body smell, the "after-sport" smell,is polluting our air..try refraining from taking a shower for two days and you would know what i mean.that horrible smell is what makes me choose carefully where i sit especially in class.not because im a racist or anything,i just dont wanna hold my breath the whole time and end up with my face turning blue.i fail to understand the reason behind this.well maybe they like the smell i dont know,but for some of us smelling good is spraying Issey Miyake.maybe soap is something that is foreign to them. what im thinking is for us to have a " What Do You Smell Like" campaign.I'm serious! or just a simple "Soap Awareness Day" or "Deodorant Awareness Campaign"..the funny thing is that they try to over this smell by putting on a strong -scented perfume but what it does is that it penetrates to your nose like a sharp stick and unfortunately the funky smell is still there! now there's two problem,one is smelling like a rotten egg( well maybe not exactly like a rotten egg but something like it) And the "killing" perfume..seriously,the scents of these perfumes are more deadly than bullets..it can kill a cow in just 40 seconds(only if the cow itself doesnt stink)..so im making the change myself..if you see me giving out perfume to random people at the street, you can assume that im the one writing this..i'll see ya when i see ya..Ciao

1st post

today marks a new day for me..this blog is one of many blogs that i have tried to keep alive for the past few years and i just hope this one does not deserve the same fate.part of the reason why those previous blogs were not active was partly because the connection here in Brunei and largely because i was just too lazy to type what was on my mind.I'm feeling optimistic about this blog,why? because i feel that i see something that is worth laughing my @$$ of or at least smile about it.as for the few posts i will be writing would be some of the favorite funny moments so far( which i hope that i can remember) so sit back and i hope you can enjoy..Ciao
